My thread title referred to CBC National News (our government's station) not CTV or Global or City.

What's most important here - CBC National News or the convoy and the reason for it?


The convoy has been covered by Canadian networks/news medias everywhere across the country, including CBC, and Canadians across the country have been made aware of it by whichever news medias they have available to their regions. CBC isn't the be all to end all and whether or not the news about the convoy was covered by CBC National specifically or some other media isn't important and shouldn't be a sticking point to discussion about the real issue - which is namely the convoy and the reason for it.

CBC covered it, as my screen shot shows.

This screen shot also shows the story being covered. Notice the name of the show in this photo. The National

I think we all had trouble believing that it wasn't.

It was a top-5 Canada national news story all week.

I saw that report on CBC and several other times on CBC Newsworld. I think it perhaps it didn't get as much media attention as it wanted due to the media and politicians being fixated on the SNC scandal. This idea that the CBC never covered it is absurd.
